At Roblox our goal is always to support developers who love to experiment with new technology and want to push the boundaries of what exists on Roblox. And we found millions of talented creators from around the world who are building incredible experiences on the platform. From the visually breathtaking environments in Winds of Fortune leveraging our new <\/span>Materials system<\/span> to intense mystery and surprise in the beloved social horror game Secret Neighbor, we\u2019ve been blown away by the creativity and technical innovation on display.<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why we\u2019re contributing another $10 million to <\/span>Game Fund<\/span>\u2014our international program dedicated to providing funding and support for creators who are looking to build the next generation of experiences on Roblox. For a handful of these ambitious creators, we are providing the funding they need to de-risk creation and guidance from strategy to conception.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Next Generation of Roblox Experiences<\/span><\/h2>\n

With this $35 million fund, we\u2019re looking for projects with innovative gameplay, ambitious visual designs, and creative ideas that are unlike anything else on the platform. Current Game Fund participants have wowed us with compelling cross-platform gameplay, engaging social mechanics, dynamic in-game avatars, and creative economic models.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rolling Thunder<\/span>, for example, continues to draw players in with its large-scale, high-fidelity environments, attracting 20 million visits to the player versus player (PvP) alpha and player versus environment (PvE) demo. Creators <\/span>Jandel<\/span> and <\/span>Foryxe<\/span> presented at the <\/span>Roblox Developers Conference (RDC)<\/span> last weekend on how they found success and built player loyalty through rapid iteration with Game Fund. You can find the recording on our YouTube channel in the coming days.<\/span><\/p>\n
